  "account": "If you find yourself interested by this message, you likely fall into one of two categories: either you're simply curious, or you believe you may possess items worthy of The Onion's attention. For the curious, there's no harm in continuing to explore; for those seeking to share their finds, this is the place to do so.\n\nThe Onion is on the lookout for specific editions, identifiable by their Volume and Issue Numbers, along with their publication dates. These details can usually be found on the front page of each issue, but their location might vary slightly from one issue to another. In the case of special issues, you might encounter them listed as \"22-01\" instead of \"Volume 22 Issue 1\".\n\nTo express your interest in contributing, please fill out the Google Form provided. Be sure to include as much information as you can regarding the issues you believe match what The Onion is seeking. Once submitted, our archivist will get in touch to discuss your collection further.\n\nThe more complete the collection, the greater the Onion's interest. Therefore, it is encouraged to provide as much information as possible during the form submission. However, it's important to note that the issues should be in good condition, clean, and easy to read. If you decide to sell an issue to The Onion, it will then become our property and cannot be returned. Should we have any additional questions, we will reach out.",
